Toyota to introduce its BEVs in India through 2020s

PTI quoted Japanese auto major Toyota as saying that it will launch more than ten battery electric vehicles by early 2020s starting in China, with India to be among the first markets along with the U.S. and Europe besides its home turf.

Toyota's plans also involve getting to a point where around half of its annual vehicle sales are accounted for by electrified cars, including both hybrid and fully electric vehicles - it has a firm target of 5.5 million electrified vehicles sold annually by 2030.

The company said in a statement that "Toyota will accelerate the popularisation of BEVs with more than 10 BEV models to be available worldwide by the early 2020s, starting in China, before entering other markets - the gradual introduction to Japan, India, the United States and Europe is expected".

Toyota has set a bold new target to sell at least one million zero-emission cars by 2030, as it places the environment at the centre of its strategy for the coming decade.
